Most top college crews have a calm, tree-edged river or lake to paddle around in, a well-appointed boathouse to change in, and money from old grads for new equipment. Not so the University of California at Berkeley. One of Coach Jim Lemmon's shells has been around for 29 years and the building his eights call home was built in 1925. His practice course? It would probably be easier to row through Times Square...
SINCLAIR. For the kids, Disney and dinosaurs practically carry the fair. It's the reptiles that have invaded Sinclair's ginkgo tree grove. The saurus family-Ankylo, Stego, Tyranno and big brother Bronto -stand around as if they couldn't believe that mammals had inherited the earth.

Tony's No. 8 iron landed...
Backwards Latin. Rippling across the ivory everywhere are images that summarize early theology. The tusks lend the cross an undulating vitality, repeated in the budding motif of the Garden of Eden's Tree of Life, then supposed to be the material of the original cross of Calvary. Taking these themes, the cross dramatically telescopes time, showing Adam and Eve, the primordial parents of man, at the base of the cross as they are at last raised from the dead by the Crucifixion. They seem to emerge from their eons-long sleep in a mood of joyous bewilderment as they...
